Full job description

Permanent, Full Time 37 hours per week. This is a hybrid role with two fixed days in the office (currently Thursday and Friday).

Do you have knowledge and experience of working with children and young people with additional needs, special educational needs and disabilities and their families? Are you able to challenge barriers to the inclusion of children and young people with additional needs and disabilities? Do you have a degree or level 3 qualification in social care, education, health or related area?

If the answer is Yes – we have an exciting opportunity for a Social Care Practitioner to join our Children’s Direct Payment Service in the Short Break Team located within Disabled Children and Specialist Services.

The Short Break Team is a dynamic service that offers guidance, advice and support to children and young people with additional needs, special educational needs and disabilities and their families. The team has extensive skills and experience and a “can do” ethos.

Working in our Direct Payment team you will set up, oversee and support disabled children and their families who receive our specialist Direct Payment service. You will have a caseload and will be responsible for your families by setting up new Direct Payment accounts, undertaking financial audits, annual reviews, and contributing to the child’s Educational Health and Care Plan (EHCP).

We aim to offer support at the earliest opportunity to build resilience within family networks to prevent escalation and crisis. We support children and young people with additional needs to be access short break activities in their local community. It is our aim that Short Breaks will contribute to keeping children and young people safe and healthy, enabling them to enjoy new activities, make friends and have new learning opportunities – as well as preparing teenagers for adulthood. By providing children and young people such opportunities, we support parents and carers in their role as primary carers and give them breaks to assist them to look after themselves and their wider family.

We offer practical help and support to disabled children, young people and their families experiencing short or long-term difficulties. We provide support to empower families to address various challenges, reducing problems and risks. We can help parents, carers and disabled children and young people with a range of social and personal issues.

The Short Break Team offer includes:

Direct Payment Service – supporting parents and carers choice and control to source bespoke social care support.

FLORA - our early identification and support service helping parents and professionals navigate support through our Local Offer.

Inclusion Service - supporting the inclusion of children with additional needs in community activities.

Carers Wellbeing Grant.

Disabled Children Register.

Review and Reassessment team – supporting children receiving an overnight short break.

Please note that this role is subject to an Enhanced DBS Check.
